The teen whose skin grows too fast

***EXCLUSIVE*** VIDEO AVAILABLE, TAMPA, FLORIDA, USA: A teenager with a rare condition that causes him to shed his skin like a snake has defied doctors’ predictions that he wouldn’t survive his first year. Elio Figueredo, 13, of Tampa, Florida, was born with a still undiagnosed congenital complaint, believed to be a form of ichythosis. His condition means he makes new skin cells too quickly and loses the protective barrier that keeps moisture in his skin - but also gives him amazing superhero-like powers of healing. Elio’s unusual appearance has made him the target of cruel bullying, but he has learnt to accept his condition and now dreams of one day being a professional chef.

***EXCLUSIVE*** After a traumatic first pregnancy this woman couldn’t get out of bed but she continuously blamed it on POSTPARTUM until blood tests showed obscure PATHOGENS in her system caused by BREAST IMPLANT ILLNESS – resulting in her having the implants that ‘ALMOST KILLED’ her removed. Personal trainer, Bianca Weintraub (33) from New York, USA, got 300cc breast implants in April 2014, but rupturing of the implants was the only risk that was mentioned. Initially, Bianca was pleased, but the implants never felt natural to her, as they felt like an intrusion on her body. A year after having the implants, Bianca noticed strange and isolated symptoms, which included cystic acne, irregular periods and night sweats, but doctors insisted she was fine. Bianca discovered she was expecting her first child in 2016 and despite her excitement throughout the nine months, she also struggled greatly. Bianca was exhausted, suffered with anxiety and her hair began falling out, but Bianca and her husband Craig (37), welcomed their daughter Siena in January 2017.
